stuff.co.nz MAY 5, 2016, CHRISTCHURCH MAIL Siggy looking forward to future MATTHEWLAU As one career comes to an end for footballer Ben Sigmund, a new one blossoms. The former All Whites and Wellington Phoenix defender has got the ball rolling with his new business, Fully Committed People Development. Sigmund intends to take the business nationwide, helping develop people on their career path to realise what they are capable of. He said he endured a lack of off-field support during his professional career. ‘‘To be honest I don’t want to be coaching all the time…but it’s something that I do enjoy parttime, a little bit here and there,’’ he said. ‘‘I’ve got a few contracts lined up to start work.’’ The 35 year old’s book tour for Fully Committed – The Ben Sigmund Story will run fromMay 13 to 29. He aims to be available for his new club, Cashmere Technical, against Coastal Spirit on June 4 after his one-month competitive football stand-down period lapses. ‘‘I won’t live here but happy to commute if there are certain things that people are interested in me coming to do to keep in contact with the local Canterbury community.’’ Sigmund will play at Cash- Footballer Ben Sigmund with fan Tessa Dewit, 6. mere Technical alongside his 2010 All Whites World Cup squad teammate Aaron Clapham and former Canterbury United colleague Dan Terris. He was in Christchurch last week to host the Christchurch Football Academy (CFA) holiday programme. Part of his new career is to mentor, coach and motivate young athletes. During his visit to the CFA, Sigmund joined the academy’s professional coaching staff. While it was important to Sigmund to demonstrate the right techniques to the youngsters, he said it was more about having fun at their age.

Between the football sessions, Sigmund addressed the 70-odd children to talk about his career, the sacrifices, and what it takes to become a professional football player. 35 Panthers and Warriors in Christchurch WIN The Penrith Panthers host the New Zealand Warriors in their NRL match at AMI Stadium on May 14 – and you could be there! The game is on track to be a sell-out, demonstrating that there is a massive rugby league fan base around the South Island. ‘‘It has been a few years since the last NRL match in Christchurch in 2010,’’ match promoter Justin Wallace said. The last fixture in Christ- church had the Roosters take on theWarriors, when a hat-trick to then fullback Kevin Locke guided the Warriors toaa20-18win. Christchurch hasn’t always been a happy hunting for the Warriors, destroyed by the Wests Tigers 4–50 in 2004, in what was the first match in Christchurch since 1996, when they lost 22-34 to the then Balmain Tigers. Saturday’s match against the Pantherswill kick off at 5pm.
